== STK ==

+

You might like to experiment with a collection of STK Physical and FM synthesis objects. To make them available in Max/MSP, you will need to install [http://www.music.columbia.edu/PeRColate/ PeRColate]. If you are using Windows, [http://theguitarzeros.com/fretbuzz/PeRColate-v0.9b5.zip look here].

+

+

+

Recently, [http://megrimm.net/software/PeRColate-OSX-Intel-10.5/ PeRColate was compiled again for Pd for OS X]. If all else fails, [[Stk2pd]] should work for Linux or OS X.
